Hi,
I am have a problem with an email this page to a friend script. Some users
are able to access the email form just fine, while others receive an error
message telling them they do not have access to the form. The .cgi script is
set-up to allow all users to access the email form by clicking on a link
from an HTML page. If a user tries to access the .cgi script directly, they
are given an error message from within the .cgi script. However, the users
that are currently having problems entering the email form are not trying to
enter the .cgi script directly; the are accessing the script like everyone
else (from an HTML page), yet they are being given the error message. Any
idea why the script would let some people access the page and others not?
Below, is the part of the .cgi script which gives the error message. Thanks!
if (!$ENV{'HTTP_REFERER'}) {
print "<html><head><title>Access denied</title></head>\n";
print "<body>\n";
print "You may not access this page.\n";
print "Your attempt has been logged.\n";
print "Your Ip address has been logged.\n\n";
print "\n";
print "\n\n";
print "</body></html>\n";
exit;
}
